crocheted reef

i'm glued to my computer today (i fractured my toe tripping over ac's playstation cord) so i'm catching up on email and found a great link from d*s reader sarajo about the institute for figuring (an organization that investigates the mathematics behind patterns and illustrations). they house a gorgeous gallery of 'crocheted hyperbolic models' that includes a wonderful series of knitted sea creatures and anemones like this one. i was blown away by how beautiful each object was and thought you guys might get a kick out of them, too. click here to browse the entire collection. and stay tuned for a fresh podcast this afternoon! [thanks, sarajo!]
